Ua hāʻawi ʻo Boeing [NYSE: BA] i kēia lā i ka 737 MAX mua no Eastar Jet, e lilo ana ia i mokulele mua ma Korea e hoʻohana i ka mana ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka wahie a me ka lōʻihi o ka mokulele 737 kaulana.
"Ua hauʻoli mākou i ka lawe ʻana i kēia mokulele 737 MAX hou," wahi a Jong-Gu Choi, Pelekikena o Eastar Jet. "ʻO ka hoʻokomo ʻana o ka 737 MAX i kā mākou ʻauwaʻa e hōʻike ana i nā hana a mākou e hana nei e hoʻololi i kā mākou huahana huahana a hāʻawi i kahi ʻike honua i kā mākou mea kūʻai. Eia kekahi, ʻo ka hoʻokele waiwai kiʻekiʻe a me ka hiki ke lōʻihi o ka 737 MAX e hiki ai iā mākou ke hoʻonui i kā mākou pūnaewele i nā mākeke hou a me nā mākeke i ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, e kōkua iā mākou e hoʻokō i ka ulu lōʻihi.
E lawe ʻo Eastar Jet i kahi mokulele 737 MAX 8 hou ma hope o kēia mahina, e hui pū me nā ʻauwaʻa mokulele o Next-Generation 737s.
Hoʻokomo ka MAX i ka ʻenehana hou loa CFM International LEAP-1B engines, Advanced Technology winglets, a me nā mea hoʻonui ea e hoʻomaikaʻi i ka hana a hōʻemi i nā kumukūʻai hana. Ma ka hoʻonohonoho Eastar Jet, hiki i ka MAX 8 ke lele ʻoi aku ma mua o 3,100 nautical mile (5,740 kilomita) - 500 nautical mile ma mua o nā hiʻohiʻona 737 mua - ʻoiai e hāʻawi ana i ka 14 pakeneka ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka wahie.
"Ua loaʻa i ka Eastar Jet ka ulu nui e lele ana i ka Boeing 737. Me ka 737 MAX hou, hiki i ka mokulele ke lawe i kā lākou hana i ka pae aʻe. Hiki iā lākou ke lele ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi, e hoʻohaʻahaʻa i kā lākou kumukūʻai hana, a hāʻawi i kahi ʻike ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi no kā lākou poʻe holo kaʻa, "wahi a Ihssane Mounir, ka pelekikena kiʻekiʻe o Commercial Sales & Marketing no The Boeing Company.

Ma waho aʻe o ka hoʻololi ʻana i kāna mau ʻauwaʻa, e hoʻohana ʻo Eastar Jet i Boeing Global Services e hoʻomaikaʻi i kāna mau hana. Aia kēia mau lawelawe i ka Maintenance Performance Toolbox, ka mea e hāʻawi i ka manawa maoli i nā ʻenehana ʻike pono e hoʻoponopono koke i nā pilikia mālama mokulele e kū mai ana a mālama i nā mokulele i ka papa manawa.
Hoʻokumu ʻia ma Gimpo/Incheon International Airport ma Seoul, Korea, ua hoʻokumu ʻo Eastar Jet i nā hana ma 2007 me Next-Generation 737s. Mai ia manawa, ua ulu nui ka mākeke kūʻai haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa o Korea (LCC) a ua lilo i mākeke LCC nui loa ma Northeast Asia. I nā makahiki ʻelima i hala iho nei, ua ulu ka māhele mākeke ma mua o 30 pakeneka i kēlā me kēia makahiki. Ma muli o kēia ulu a me ka hoʻokomoʻana o ka 737 MAX 8 i kona mau'auwaʻa, hiki iā Eastar Jet ke hoʻonui i nā mākeke hou e like me Singapore a me Kuala Lumpur ma waena o nā wahi e hiki mai ana.
